Re: 65 GMC Suburban 4x4 Restorod Project
Great looking truck! What kind of wiring harness did you use? Any tips or pointers from it?

![]() ![]() Wish I could do an underdash system like that in my 82. Problem is, unlike 72 and earlier trucks, the bottom of the dash is only a 2-3" from the heater floor outlet, and around 6" from the firewall. I really like your Burb. Have you come up with a way to protect the patina and surface rust? Maybe some paint company makes a clear sealer. I'd call PPG, DuPont and others.

A lot of people are using CLR and a Scottbright pad. Then a flat clearcoat.
